Timing & Synchronization Standards for Wireless Networks

Synchronization networks have been critical components of wireless networks for many years. Introduction of advanced LTE services and 5G services poses new requirements for synchronization networks. This white paper describes synchronization requirements, technologies, as well as, synchronization standards and test and measurement applications. The paper closes with a description of ITU G.826x/G.827x standards for synchronization in wireless networks and highlights some of the main metrics and n
